Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment and microbial immobilization, and relates to a method for preparing an SRB bacterial agent, specifically a method for preparing an SRB bacterial agent by using MOF as a carrier of SRB. Background Art

[0002] During mining exploration and mining, acidic sulfate wastewater with strong acidity, high salt concentration and high dissolved metal concentration is generated due to the exposure of sulfur-bearing strata to the air. High-concentration sulfate wastewater can cause a series of serious environmental problems, leading to water mineralization, metal corrosion, scaling of pipelines and equipment, release of toxic hydrogen sulfide and disruption of the balance of the natural sulfur cycle. Sulfate is easily converted into sulfide, which can combine with hydrogen to form hydrogen sulfide, or combine with metals to form metal sulfide precipitation. If the water containing sulfate is not well treated, the hydrogen sulfide or metal sulfide formed by the sulfate reduction process may have an adverse effect on the environment. The potential hazards of high-concentration sulfate wastewater are extremely difficult to treat and last for a long time. Therefore, controlling the excessive discharge of high-concentration sulfate has become one of the world's largest environmental problems.

[0003] Wastewater containing sulfate is usually treated using physical, chemical and biological technologies. Anaerobic biological technology is also considered one of the most energy-saving and economical technologies. Compared with traditional desulfurization processes, anaerobic acid-producing bacteria and SRB acid-producing desulfurization processes have the advantages of low power consumption, high treatment potential, good stability and high adsorption capacity. However, the growth of SRB is affected by temperature, pH, COD, heavy metals and SO4 2- Affected by factors such as concentration, the pH of acidic sulfate wastewater is generally less than 5, which is not suitable for the growth and metabolism of SRB, greatly limiting the application of SRB in the treatment of acidic sulfate wastewater. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the above-mentioned prior art, provide a method for preparing an SRB bacterial agent that is easy to operate, and improve the rate and acid resistance of SRB in treating acidic sulfate wastewater.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A method for preparing SRB bacterial agent using MOF, characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0007] 1. Place Postgate C medium dissolved in distilled water in a sealed anaerobic bottle, adjust the pH to 7.0-7.2, blow nitrogen for 15 minutes, and sterilize at 121°C for 20 minutes;

[0008] 2. After the culture medium has cooled to room temperature, add MOF and 20% SRB bacterial solution to the culture medium and place it in a 35°C constant temperature incubator for static culture;

[0009] 3. After culturing for 3 days, the mixture was centrifuged at 8000r / min for 5 minutes; the solid after centrifugation was washed three times with sterile saline to obtain the MOF-fixed bacteria MOF-SRB;

[0010] 4. Mix MOF-SRB and fresh Postgate C medium and store in a 4°C refrigerator.

[0011] The components of the Postgate C culture medium in step 1 are: KH2PO4 (0.5g / L), MgSO4·7H2O (1.5g / L), Na2SO4 (1.2g / L), CaCl2 (0.06g / L), Fe(NH4)2·(SO4)2·6H2O (0.3g / L), NaCl (1.0g / L), NH4Cl (1.0g / L), sodium lactate (3.5ml / L), yeast powder (1.0g / L), L-cysteine ​​(0.3g / L), and ascorbic acid (0.3g / L).

[0012] The amount of MOF added in step 2 is: 0.6 g / L.

[0013] In the step 2, the MOF is fixed to SRB by adding it to the Postgate C culture medium at the same time.

[0014] In the step 3, the time for fixing SRB with MOF is 3 days, the centrifugal speed for obtaining MOF-SRB is 8000 r / min, and the centrifugal time is 5 minutes.

[0015] The MOF-SRB in step 4 was stored in a refrigerator at 4°C.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] (1) The MOF used in the present invention has a small particle size, a large specific surface area, and a high reaction activity, and can attach high concentrations of SRB to promote the metabolism of SRB;

[0018] (2) The present invention can not only effectively improve the rate of SRB in treating acidic sulfate wastewater, but also improve the acid resistance of SRB. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
